Two weeks ago I released a video that has become the most popular video on my channel so far, "The Most Useful Lick I Ever Learned" ( • The most useful guitar... )
We're going to take that lesson to the next level in this guitar lesson video.
More info about Blue Morris and his books like "Guitar Soloing Like a Pro":

Today's video expands on a previous one called "The Most Useful Lick I Ever Learned" here: ruclips.net/video/ZXIvF2ARZxA/видео.html
Your videos are rapidly making me a better guitar player. You're the best guitar teacher on RUclips, very practical lessons that I can apply to playing and songwriting. I hope your channel gets huge, thank you!
Hi Blue, very helpful! Is there a video connecting major to minor? G to Bm example.
@@ssdelmar Not sure if this is what you mean but this is a common way to use major and minor pentatonic, especially in blues and rock. Major Pentatonic on the I chord, then Minor Pentatonic on the IV chord. I have a video about that here: ruclips.net/video/K9QdVkZIxAo/видео.html Or if you mean connecting the chords with a scale, you could use this as a launch out of a G major bar chord and then just grab the Bm chord which will be nearby. This video doesn't do exactly that but could be easily adapted to: ruclips.net/video/-IsaY00TUcw/видео.html
I've learned more from 2 of your videos than I have surfing RUclips for the past 2 years. Much appreciated thank you!
Awesome that's what we like to hear. More coming every Saturday
If you learned that much from this guy, you're a horrible guitar player. Give up
I agree 100%. There are a lot of YT lessons. A lot of them are good but Blue is a real teacher. That is a gift! I learned to play 6 monts ago. All from YT channels. I played things that sounded nice but I didn't understand the whole spectrum of what I was doing. Till I found the Blue's channel. Suddenly it's like a messy puzzle where the picture is showing up and the missing pieces are reached in an understanding way so it fits together and I can remember it.
Exactly the same 4 me
Dude, I have learned so much from you! I’m normally not one for leaving comments, but you’re playing and method of teaching has literally change the way I think about guitar. Thank you so much for all your videos.
Thank you!!! Glad to hear it and thanks for posting!
You’re style is like fresh squeezed orange juice. Thanks
Some vitamin C for ya 🍊
I've learned so much from your videos that I allow even 4 or 5 minute long ads to run so that you get paid. Thank you!
Thank you!!
A big lightbulb just came on! Thank you.
Great thanks William 💡 lots more videos coming
I very quickly hit the subscribe button. I didn't know it was legal to use the blue note with a major chord. Plenty of people out there that can teach you how to play a song. This teaches you how to play guitar.
Cool! Welcome to the channel. More coming in the new year.
Never watched you before but I immediately clicked with this idea.
PERFECTLY EXPLAINED!!!
Thanks.
Welcome! Thanks for watching. New video out every Saturday
15-years ago I asked my guitar teacher how I could move fluidly from rhythm to lead and back again. Thank you for answering. Something I'd love you to expand on... more rhythm licks. Playing only on the one is perfect for this lesson. But 1 or 2 bar rhythm licks would add so much. Wishing you great success with your channel. Subscribed.
Thanks Steve, glad I could help. I will think about a video with more rhythm playing licks for you :)
Hey Blue, I watch a lot of instructional guitar stuff and you have a great way of explaining things. Extremely well done
Thanks very much Dennis!
when you speak it's not too fast and not too slow... you seem very friendly... your just a good teacher and I feel like you can take a beginner type and LAUNCH them into inermediate type....me like... 😃
Thanks for the great feedback Larry!
I think playing chords and single notes is the ultimate of playing guitar, not only is this a great lesson for that but it also allows you to make up your own licks and melodies, your teaching style is first class.
Wonderful thank you!
Again,just what I was looking for. Thank you from a fellow Vancouverite
Thanks John!
I really like the way you teach...I think you have a gift; most videos are hard to follow. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the great feedback. More coming soon
You have the greatest technique of explanations I have ever been exposed to.
Ive been around a guitar since I was a kid (62years old) dad had a 57 tele, he bought my older brother a fender newporter so I was exposed. Having said that I didn’t get my own until 1988 self taught having stolen licks and phrases over the early years. I stalled, could play but could not advance until I found the holy grail of teaching yes you I have advanced more in three days than in my whole guitar playing life!!!!! Thank you for providing your teaching skills to the masses Im blessed to have found you on RUclips
Tom
Wow thank you Tom that's great to hear! We have lots more coming for you 😀👍
So glad I found your lessons, I’ve been stuck and struggling, the two lessons on chords and how to tie them to licks are very good, would like more of the same please
Thanks John. New lesson every Saturday for as long as I can keep it up.
Your teaching method is so intuitive and 'easy' to follow. It's not about memorizing every note and chord - well done!!!
Many thanks! Lots more lessons like it on the channel and our Patreon www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
This is one of the best lessons I have ever seen: at the end of the video you say that chords and scales are taught separately usually: totally agree. Thank you so much for posting this lesson. Amazingly clear and informative lesson!
Thanks for watching. Chords and scales together helps so much.
Very helpful and clear lesson. It is crazy how obvious that is once you are shown. Wonder why I did not link/notice the connection earlier.
Good point, others have said the same 😀
You are right. I NEVER see videos on how to tie it all together like this. There are scale videos and chord videos, bits and pieces, but not how to actually use the together and play some music. This is the sort of stuff I need to know. Thanks. Got more of this stuff?
Thank you! Lots more lessons like this on the channel and our Patreon group www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Cant afford it. I am old school musician. I barely am 1/2 step up from living on the streets. I have no money, none, only 2 guitars. I can not afford a damn thing.
@@michaelcraig9449 No prob. Lots more coming to RUclips here as well :)
Another absolutely fantastic light bulb turned on lesson. Thanks so much, your insight into understanding and teaching is amazing. I jumped up at least six months in my guitar learning journey with these two videos!!!
Cool thanks Dennis! Lots more coming to the channel and our Patreon www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Great lesson....and great tone from that tele
Thanks George!
Sounds good. I’m listening. 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Wow! So much is starting to click and make sense!
Awesome thanks Michael!
I’ve learned something just from having these playing in my work truck. I’ll def watch them again when I’m at home tonight and my two boys 3 & 5 finally make it to sleep. You should break down a buckethead song or 13
Cool, thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy playing these connections.
Light bulb moment! Amazing! Thank you very much!😄
Thanks for watching Gavin!
WOW! Talk about an eye opener. This is starting to make sense.
Cool thanks for watching, more coming this Saturday.
Excellent practical teaching on how to play guitar. Congrats and thank you.
Thanks for the great feedback!
Awesome, Love how you connect Chords with licks, I have been trying to understand the concept for Years and now I have a clearer understanding of it in a week, Practice on ,Yes, Thank you so much, Im looking forward to more clear lessons Happy Christmas to you
Thanks Leslie!
BEST GUITAR LESSON EVER. This got me out of the rut I've been in for many years.....can't believe how much I learned from this. Amazing,
Fantastic! Thanks ERose. New video every Saturday
Hope you get a million subscribers. Thank you!
Thanks J S, me too!
Cool lesson, thanks Blue.
Thanks for watching!
Danke für dieses und alle anderen Videos ! Du ermutigt mich enorm und erklärst Theorie auf sehr verständliche und praxisnahe Weise. Und du frischst noch ganz nebenbei meine Englischkenntnisse wieder auf :-)
Great to hear, thanks Rene
3:35 pm and I've seen and feel improvement on my guitar practice following your teaching,very thank you
very helpful...hendrix style...and many others...BB king Yah... i'm 62 and 50 yrs behind schedule
Thanks for watching Jon!
This is the first time I am staring to understand how to improvise over chord changes instead of just noodling in the same key and hitting chord tones when i get lucky lol. Thx
Thanks. Just the lesson I needed at this point
Thanks for watching Garth! More coming this weekend.
Light bulb moment. Thank you so much and God bless you.
Thank you sir! I have been playing for 50 plus years and you just gave me an AH HA moment. Made me subscribe. Keep up the great lessons.
Wonderful! Thanks for subscribing lots more coming
Hi Blue, another amazing lesson, perfect place to pick up from the last marvellous lesson and tie it all together. You should know that you’ve really hit on something here as this is exactly what so many of us ‘almost intermediate’ novice players are needing and looking for. Another long Sunday practice session ahead, beautiful guitar as well! Thank you ever so much!
Awesome thanks S Y!
Just wanted to second this comment.
Just having someone spell out what seems obvious after the fact, but giving us those aha moments once the fog lifts!
I appreciate you giving some practical ideas along with a chord progression to work with to glue it together. It'd be great if you keep building on this. Suggestion, would like to see a video that breaks down different embellishments, extensions added along with different intervals/dyads used for color and transitions. Some popular rock examples would be great too!
I find knowing CAGED system and Pentatonic boxes helps connect this together, because each major and minor chord form has an underlying scale. When you know them, you know what notes are playable for each chord.
Thanks for the suggestions. There will be some videos that touch on those subjects in the coming weeks :)
Hey Man love to hear about that AXE.... Has to have a 5 way!!!!! KILLER... great lesson
It does. Strat pickup in the middle, five way switch. Get some unique tones with that one :)
Pure guitargold!!
Thanks WQ
This is probably the most helpful video i could find on connecting chords to scales the most helpful tip for me was the focus on the root one
Great to hear thank you! Lots more on the channel and more coming :)
Awesome stuff! thanks so much Blue!!
Thanks Garth!
Just Discovered you! Very Excited as I have learned more off 3 of your videos than I have in a very, very, very, very long time!
Great to hear thanks Charles!
Great lesson thank you 👏🏻
Thanks GusRock!
Hey man, just came across your channel. Although I'm already familiar with this, you do an excellent job explaining clearly connecting cords using this pattern. I wish I found an explanation this clear years ago. Subscribed. Happy holidays! Cheers!
Awesome thanks Charles!
Hey Blue- love your videos they’ve helped me a lot. Keep up the good work!
Great to hear thank you! More coming in a about a week or so 😀

Really great lesson. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Great opening tune
Thank you for a very good guitar lesson on video!
Glad you liked it!
New subscriber to your channel. Just wanted to thank you & say how incredibly helpful your videos like this one are.
There are a ton of talented guitarist instructors on RUclips, yet bizarrely it seems you’re the only one who’s offering these videos where you show exactly what’s going through your mind when soloing. This is the dilemma many of us face, so please keep these types of videos coming.
It’s as if the other instructors either don’t understand the value in this, or they’d rather pick a topic & not deviate from it.
Thank you! That's great feedback, I have been trying to do just that -- describe what I'm thinking -- and others -- when we're soloing, especially soloing over the changes. More like it coming to the channel and our Patreon www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Blue, where have you been all my life. Your lesson here and the previous one (The most useful lick I ever learned) is what I have needed for so long. I cant wait for whats to come on this channel
Thanks Philip! I hope to do release one new video each weekend.
😊❤ GREAT lesson! Even though I knew about a lot of the concepts presented….it was always in a “closed” system context.. Big lightbulb moment,for me….when i saw how they all get linked together. Thanks
Great thanks! 👍
Stumbled across these 2 videos...WOW, perfectly on point! Thank you Blue :)
Thanks for watching!
Another great lesson. Thank you for putting the two lessons together. I’ll be working on these now!
Thanks for watching Marc!
another great lesson from Blue! Kudos to you man! You really are generous with your knowledge! :)
Thank you David!
Really enjoying your teaching style - current video just opened my eyes to omg I get it (sort of); have to watch again - thanks!

Welcome aboard!
Wow, great video!! I actually found something that makes sense about playing a chord and a lead phrase! Thank you!
Cool thanks for commenting 🙂
You are a great teacher. So easy to understand..
Thanks Matthew! Lots more co.ing to this channel and our Patreon patreon.com/GuitarLessonsVancouver
This really put it all together the best explanation I've ever had to become a good player thank you!
Cool thanks! Lots more coming
Hi Blue, came here by chance and found this and the previous lesson super useful. Thanks so much for your time and energy, greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the support, Simon!
Very useful. Thank you for sharing 😊
My pleasure 😊
This just changed my music life thank you!!

Thanks again! Glad you are enjoying them. Lots more on our Patreon if you haven't already checked that out. Tx!
great lesson.Thank you
Thank you DT!
Bravo !! Great lesson and companion lesson to previous vid. Extremely useful, and lesson given in a way its so understandable. Awesome
Thanks for the feedback Thomas. More coming Saturday
Great Lesson! Please make more of these for each major chord shape! This was helpful and I could see how this could open up the neck for chord/lead ideas.
Thanks Marcel, more like this is coming. One for the 12 bar blues is soon, I think.
Awesome man!! I've been dancing around this but haven't put it together. Please please keep this great stuff coming!
Thanks Gary, new video every Saturday. I have another one similar to this coming up, though might not be released for 2-3 weeks as I'm working that far ahead.
It took me quite time to figure all that out by myself, and now i see you nailed ALL THAT TOGETHER in just a few minutes, just missing the pinky embellishments to the 3 finger chord center 1-3-5 on the B G and D String and the inverted bar chord extension of the C shape bar chord 2 frets up. And that itself directly connects to the 5 chord right on the same spot.
Thanks for watching Ulrich. More coming this weekend
